When I first saw the first trailer of She Is Love, I was immediately intrigued by the premise of an unexpected reunion.

FlixChatter Review: RADIOACTIVE (2019)
Ever since her breakout role in Gone Girl, Rosamund Pike has become an even more compelling performer who often portrays brilliant real-life heroines. A couple of years ago, I thought her performance in A Private War as fearless war-correspondence Marie Colvin. Well, she plays yet another Marie in this film, Marie Curie, the Polish-born Nobel …
FlixChatter Review: UNCLE FRANK (2020)
I had the privilege of seeing this film at Twin Cities Film Fest last October, one of the three films I saw on the big screen. I had come into it blindly, not having seen a trailer or even read in details what it's about at all or even seen the trailer. I find that …

Spotlight on BBC One’s miniseries SS-GB + Interview with actor Maximilian Dirr
This past Sunday, BBC One finally aired one of my most anticipated series (well it's a 5-part miniseries) starring my fave Yorkshireman Sam Riley. I've mentioned the project several times, including here and here. Naturally it'll make you think of Amazon’s Man in the High Castle but set in London. Based on the 1978 novel by Len …
